On the carrying of pillion passengers, and especially very young children, two days ago I observed a woman with what looked to me like four-year-olds or five-year-olds up on the board of an e-scooter. Even if they never hit a car, if they hit a bump on the road the wheel is so small it is likely the children would be thrown. Is An Garda Síochána empowered to do something about that? It is clearly reckless behaviour.
